Lighthouse Trolleys and Dolphin Tours (also known as Lighthouse Trolleys & Dolphin Tours) is locally owned and family-operated, and we've been in the tour business for more than 45 years. We run award-winning trolley history tours, ghost tours, dolphin tours, sunset cruises and fishing charters, plus private tours and transportation for weddings, groups and conventions.
